[Computed tomographic diagnosis of primary mediastinal tumors].
61 Patients with histologically proved primary mediastinal tumour were examined by computed tomography (CT) of the thorax prior to surgery. The retrospective analysis of the CT scans led to the correct diagnosis in 77% of cases. CT-values (HE), calcifications or form of tumour growth was found to be unreliable in the classification of tumour status.
